Kelowna's second annual Queer Zine Fair saw over a

Kelowna's second annual Queer Zine Fair saw over a dozen tables filled with zines, artwork, and crafts, as well as an open mic at the historic @LaurelPackinghouse. Around thirty creatives came together from the 2DLGBTQIA+ community to exhibit for free, and over a hundred visitors came through the door for the niche artform.

The name “zine” comes from magazine; they can be any kind of self-published written, illustrated, collaged, and creative publications. Zines have been a powerful underground and DIY force of expression and cultural movement in the 2SLGBTQIA+ community since the photocopier revolution of the ‘70s. The rise of the internet and social media has put the artform on the digital fringes, but it's been recently making a comeback as people look to connect and express in physical space.

Don't miss "Broken Promises", our powerful travell

Don't miss "Broken Promises", our powerful travelling exhibition from the Nikkei National Museum and Cultural Centre @NikkeiMuseum, before it closes on June 22!

If you haven't seen it yet, now's the perfect time to visit the Okanagan Heritage Museum. It's hot outside, but we've got great A/C to keep you cool while you explore.

This exhibition offers timely lessons from the past about how we treat our friends and neighbours. Come reflect on its important message before it's gone!

Meet Jas, our Head of Exhibitions!

Jas works closely with the Curatorial team to bring museum displays to life, ensuring visitors have an engaging experience. Her work can range from research and writing to graphic design, artifact selection, gallery prep, and installing displays. Next time you visit, take a moment to appreciate all the work that happens behind the scenes.

“I love both the constant learning and the sharing of knowledge. I’m a huge nerd, so getting to deep-dive into something new with each exhibit is pretty awesome! Hearing visitors say things to each other like ‘oh wow, did you know…?’ or ‘they say here that…’ (then proceed to read from the exhibit text) is so satisfying because it means our work is having an impact on them.”

One afternoon, Jas observed a group of boys running excitedly towards a fashion display. She heard their friend hollering to the rest of the group to come take a look: “You guys have to see this! It’s a… it’s a…. BRA!” Their mix of joy and horror was something to behold!
